Thanks Kev

General discussions. Politics, scuttlebutt, whatever: you're getting married, changing jobs, got a gripe or a compliment, dying to get out with the bow etc.....

Thanks Kev

For quite a while now my eldest son has been stuggling with a bow that is too strong for him. He was determined to beat it but his interest in archery was steadly waining. Last weekend Kevin (Longbow Infected) had a chat and organised for him to have a long term loan of a spare bow he had that wuld be more suitable - funny how when it comes form someone else it makes sense and from dad its just me going on about it.

Anyway, yesterday he took delivery of said bow and had a brilliant time. No more choking the bow, no more torquing the bow, no more quivering bow hand, no more spraying and praying. Instead a smile and HE SHOT GROUPS again :)

Thanks Kev - nothing else to say mate :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
Cheers

Its OK to make a mistake,

I've struck that kind of thinking from a certain young bloke many times Rob. :lol:

Good story Rob, know that bit about Dad all too well. Eldest bloke wasn't too bad but Mr 16YO can be hard to get along with, I have given up driving lessons, if he wants to learn to drive he'll have to find someone else to teach him :smile:

Great gesture from Kev to get the young bloke back on track, well done Kev.

Cheers...... Rod

Never under estimate the strength of a cornered coward.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

The generosity and thoughtfulness within the "trad world" never ceases to amaze me. Well done Kev!
